I'm about to buy a modem to replace my ancient unreliable 1200bps Prometheus slug. I'm leaning toward a Supra 9600bps fax/modem. Is this a bad idea for any reason? Also, I'm worried about the link speed option in AutoPilot – how can I properly set the link speed when I don't know how efective the in-modem compression will be? Is this a pit of death I'm about to jump into? Also, what was the big problem with GPFax 2.01 that was being discussed a while ago? I tried to find the original message, but couldn't. Is it worth getting? If anyone can help, I'd REALLY appreciate it. Paul
